Abstract
Comparison of microbial contamination of milk from traditional and industrial farms
Sayed Ali Mortazavi1, and Sepideh Gharehyakheh
Milk is a valuable food source requiring proper storage. In this study 40 milk samples from traditional farms and 30
samples from industrial farms of two Iranian provinces, Mazandaran and Kordistan, were collected and then their
microbial loads were investigated and compared. Microbial load of milk obtained from traditional farms was very
great and in many cases was not within standard range. There was always a significant difference between the
samples collected from traditional and industrial farms.
